where to buy 1st edition pokemon cards Full Sets Ungraded Value : r/PokeInvesting Retreat Cost Proxie 1st Edition Base Set

Her special attack, Pain, simply did magical damage

The card itself in only good if you can abuse it such as with an Upheaval

From Burnished Hart to Oblivion Stone to Nevinyrral's Disk to Skullclamp and all equipment to Sensei's Divining Top there are tons of ways to build around and abuse this
